New Opel Corsa and Mokka Hybrids charge towards 2025

Opel has launched its new hybrid Corsa Hybrid and new Mokka Hybrid, complete 
with new technology, which will enable full electric travel for up to 50% of the time 
when in an urban setting. 
Without the need for a charge, these new models promise easy of use, efficiency, 
while delivering a significant reduction in CO2 emissions, and in fuel consumption. 
The new Hybrid powertrain will be extended in the coming months across the Opel 
Astra range, together with the all-new Grandland and Frontera ranges. 
Corsa Hybrid 
Prices for the new Corsa Hybrid 1.2 100hp/74kw, 205Nm, Stop Start, begin from 
€29,695 plus delivery related charges and is available in three trim levels, SC, 
Elegance and GS. It offers fuel savings of up to 18% compared to an equivalent non- 
electrified model, combined fuel consumption is 4.7 l/100 km, with CO2 emissions of 
106 g/km. 
Mokka Hybrid 
Those choosing the Mokka Hybrid 1.2 136hp, 100kW/136bhp, 230Nm, with Stop 
Start, see prices starting from €34,995 plus delivery related charges and is also 
available in three trim levels, SC, Elegance and GS. Fuel savings of up to 20% 
compared to a non-electrified model can be expected, with combined fuel 
consumption of 4.9 l/100 km, and CO2 emissions are 110 g/km. 
New 48-volt hybrid technology features a turbocharged petrol engine, an electric 
motor and a 6-speed dual clutch transmission. The petrol engine and electric motors 
work together, or separately, depending on requirements, always in harmony to 
balance energy consumption and performance.  
A new electrified 6-speed dual clutch transmission has also been designed especially 
for hybrid applications. The gear shifts without torque interruption are shorter and 
comfort is higher. The transmission casing houses the electric motor and the DC 
inverter, optimising the drivetrain size and weight to ensure excellent driving 
performance. 
Electric Motor 
A permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, integrated in the gearbox, 
produces peak power of 21 kW/28hp and maximum torque of 55Nm. A belt-driven 
starter, in combination with the electric motor, starts the petrol engine from a cold 
start. The belt-starter also restarts the engine quickly and seamlessly during the stop 
start drive. 
Recharging 
The 48V lithium-ion battery is recharged via recuperation and the petrol engine. 
Installed under the front left seat, this location achieves optimum weight distribution 
for good driving dynamics and allows the full volume of the boot to be retained. 

Two Electrical Networks 
Two electrical networks are included: a low voltage 12V network supplies the car's 
equipment (e.g. electric windows, infotainment system); a 48V network supplies the 
hybrid system. A direct current converter to transfer electrical energy from the 48- 
volt to the 12-volt network is also included. If the 48-volt battery is almost empty, 
after the car has been idle for a particularly long time, the converter can transfer 
energy from the 12-volt to the 48-volt network. 
At low speeds, the electric motor enables fully electric travel for up to one kilometre 
or up to 50 percent of the time used in the city, for example when manoeuvring. The 
vehicle automatically switches to electric drive when the battery charge, outside 
temperature and catalytic converter temperature are appropriate. 
If the Corsa Hybrid and Mokka Hybrid decelerate, the petrol engine switches off and 
the electric motor acts as a generator to recharge the 48-volt battery of the hybrid 
system. At the same time, when the accelerator pedal is released, the hybrid can 
“sail” with the support of the electric motor. 
Drive Modes 
Drivers can choose between three driving modes: Eco (for particularly efficient 
operation), Normal and Sport. In Sport mode, the petrol engine is always running to 
ensure required performance at all times.  
Practical hybrid information is clearly arranged in the driver information display, 
allowing drivers to easily and conveniently keep an eye on the most important 
displays for the current operating mode and energy status. When the vehicle is 
switched off, a trip summary display provides additional data such as the distance 
travelled, the duration of the journey, the average consumption, the remaining range 
and the percentage of the route driven purely electrically.
